They're special releases from the distillery's gift shop.

**smknjoe** · 03-10-2013, 16:48

Yeah, but I thought they were the same OBSV 17 yr. They have different releases of that I guess?

**HighInTheMtns** · 03-10-2013, 16:58

Those two are different releases. Note the bottling date.

It wasn't random though, I felt that 15% EW was about what was right to diffuse its "extra" woodiness through the leaner OC. I never really liked that particular bottle of EWSB, it was too tannic IMO so now I've got a full bottle of a blend which is better than either IMO.

Thanks for your comments about master vatting! I do have fun with it anyway.

This just proves you are the Master Gary. You took 2 different bottles that you didn't like, and made one that's drinkable and enjoyable. Brilliant

EC12. Trying to clear some shelf space, will not be purchasing again.

RHF, then FR OBSK, not sure of what's after that yet. Maybe W12 or MM or ER17.. I need more to choose from.

On a side note does anyone get pretty heavy tea-like notes from RHF?? Cause I have been big time lately...

**squire** · 03-10-2013, 18:02

Can't say I find tea in RHF but there's a lotsa stuff in there, it's a very complex Bourbon.

As a long time craft beer drinker, I'm rather new to bourbon. Recently I've taken quite a liking to having a pour of bourbon over a couple cubes of ice. This is tonight's pour:

Welcome, Matt. Brilliant photograph! Looks as good as it tastes. We could use more visual aids in these parts.
